Abstract: Honorable Mention 2020 (professional)
AUTHOR
Tadej was born in the oldest Slovenian town called Ptuj. He comes from the family of eager readers and learners. His sister is a teacher in special school, mother works with books, and father is retired.
He attended primary school in Kidricevo, known by aluminium factory founded during World War II. He continued secondary school in Ptuj and became electrician electronic. After school he served in the army as the part of last generation of national service.
He has always been very hardworking; he was a taxi driver, security guard; finally he found a real challenge as CNC programmer. He has been doing that for 10 years.
Since programming is really demanding work and requires a lot of concentration, he needed a relaxation of some kind. Luckily his colleague introduced him to photography, which proved to be his much needed relaxation and quickly turned into love.
Tadej’s first camera was single-lens reflex to enable him more possibilities in creating different photographs.
His photography is intended to combine narrative and expressive dimension of images, as well as pure artistic dimensions. He finds motives in nature, architecture and urban life, especially human in urban affairs. Slovenia offers countless sources of beautiful and unique motives.
In photography he finds messages which come to life in images of light, where each of them speaks about the moment of its “birth”.
